undergraduate students

To apply for undergraduate admission all students must submit the following:

  • Completed application for admission. Please apply online.
  • $50 non-refundable application fee. If you are applying online, you will be given the option to submit your application fee electronically. If you are submitting a paper application, include a check or money order made payable to Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University. Please print your name and social security number on the check and submit it with your application. If payment of the $50 application fee poses a financial hardship, you can ask your guidance counselor to issue a request for a fee waiver. The waiver should be forwarded with your application for admission.
